What is a Kappa test? Is there software I can run to perform such a test?
Where can I get it?
Thanks!
Patrick

I ran a quick Kappa test on it. There was a nice fat spike at key
length 25, as somebody else suggested, but an almost perfect
correlation at 100. The message is almost certainly a simple
polyalphabetic cipher with keylength 100.
I've been playing with it, and have maybe 5% of it decoded. It's
full of really blatent clues. Kind of fun.
